<v Speaker 2>Well, you and Smith are having a mom's son time

0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:42.320
<v Speaker 2>and you're doing something that I think is really cool.

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:44.320
<v Speaker 2>They want to tell the listeners what you guys are

0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:44.720
<v Speaker 2>doing this work.

0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:47.600
<v Speaker 3>So we're having a gift card week, which means we

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:50.279
<v Speaker 3>are using up, or at least trying to use up

0:00:50.320 --> 0:00:52.440
<v Speaker 3>every single gift card that I have in my wallet.

0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 3>And so like the very first night we did Wings,

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:00.560
<v Speaker 3>last night we went to Red Robin which was so good.

0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:02.000
<v Speaker 3>And a shout out to the staff at the Red

0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:05.200
<v Speaker 3>Robin in Troy because they are all huge fans of

0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:09.120
<v Speaker 3>the show and the Wharf of the Roses and so

0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.679
<v Speaker 3>tonight we have like every single night this week it's

0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 3>planned that we're doing gift cards for dinner. We have

0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:17.360
<v Speaker 3>zoo gift cards, we have imagined gift cards, and I'm

0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 3>just I want to use him up. And he thinks

0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:21.279
<v Speaker 3>it's like the coolest thing in the whole entire world.

0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 3>I do do we get to just like and I

0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 3>told him last night at Red Rabin, I was like,

0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:30.279
<v Speaker 3>here's the deal. You order anything anything off this menu

0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 3>that you want. I mean, the kid ordered a cheeseburger,

0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 3>wings fries a Sunday. I was like, go to town, buddy.

0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:43.160
<v Speaker 2>You sent a picture and I will tell you I

0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:45.440
<v Speaker 2>was very hungry when I saw that picture and I

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:46.559
<v Speaker 2>had just eaten dinner.

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 3>Let me tell you something. If you forgot how good

0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:51.440
<v Speaker 3>Red Rabin is. Red Robin is so good. It is

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 3>so good.

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.080
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So these are all gift cards, which is interesting

0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:00.160
<v Speaker 2>because I have a drawer of gift cards.

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:01.000
<v Speaker 3>I know you do.

0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:04.720
<v Speaker 2>I have like gift cards upon gift cards and yes,

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.920
<v Speaker 2>Megan's gift card for that floating place is still in.

0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:11.840
<v Speaker 3>That place is not even in business. It's not that specific. One.

0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Meghan gave me back in the day for my birthday,

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:17.160
<v Speaker 2>a gift card to a place where you like float,

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:19.280
<v Speaker 2>I think, right, like a pod?

0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:22.400
<v Speaker 4>Is it like a sensory Yes, I don't know.

0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to do that. I cannot picture. But

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 1>it was a very nice gift. I just did not

0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>use it.

0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 2>And then I have, for some reason, I have a

0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:35.280
<v Speaker 2>ton of Yellow Subway cards because I think I did

0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:38.120
<v Speaker 2>a gig at Subway and they paid me in gift cards.

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:40.800
<v Speaker 2>And then I go through and then I have like

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 2>good gift cards. Like when I'm going to say good

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:45.519
<v Speaker 2>gift cards, I'm talking about like Phoenicia good restaurant that

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.680
<v Speaker 2>much I got. I got one that I have not

0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 2>used yet. It's funny because I never bring I should

0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:53.440
<v Speaker 2>keep them in my wallet like you have your yours,

0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 2>because when I'm there, I'm like, crap, I got a

0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:58.800
<v Speaker 2>gift card at home for this because you never think

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 2>about the gift card, although I should do this. What

0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:03.359
<v Speaker 2>do you call it again, a gift card where.

0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:05.920
<v Speaker 3>We're just in a gift card week, okay to.

0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:07.400
<v Speaker 1>Add them to your applet.

0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 3>Some of them you can like peet Away is one

0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:13.079
<v Speaker 3>this week. The way you can add to your wallet. Interesting,

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:15.800
<v Speaker 3>it's you're like my dad though, because I was at

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:19.679
<v Speaker 3>my dad's on Monday and he opens this drawer, same thing,

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:21.639
<v Speaker 3>and it's full of gift cards. I was like, mental note,

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 3>do not get Papa and Enamo a gift card for

0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:28.080
<v Speaker 3>anything from now until forever. They have so many and

0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.360
<v Speaker 3>they just don't use them. I don't understand people that

0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 3>don't use them. And then like in your case, some

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:35.000
<v Speaker 3>of the places they go out of business.

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:39.119
<v Speaker 4>Well yeah, I think with gift cards, Well, the reason

0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:40.840
<v Speaker 4>why I feel like I may not use it is

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 4>because I like, I'm a creature of habit. I go

0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 4>to the places I go to, and when I get

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 4>a gift card, say like the Phoenicia y'all talked about,

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:51.160
<v Speaker 4>I have to make a mental note in my mind

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 4>to go there.

0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.680
<v Speaker 1>It's not like in my flow of life. So it

0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 1>just ends up, you know.

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:58.320
<v Speaker 5>But people are good at giving gift cards. They'd get

0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:00.560
<v Speaker 5>you ones that you actually sure.

0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:04.360
<v Speaker 2>That they want you to like they have the love

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Like I remember there was a time in your life

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 2>where you went to Chipotle every sometimes.

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:13.360
<v Speaker 4>I would get two balls at a one time every

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:17.440
<v Speaker 4>day for I still got Chipotle gift cards and you.

0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:22.680
<v Speaker 3>Guys will take them by yourself always.

0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:26.479
<v Speaker 2>My kind of gift cards are like things that I

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:27.880
<v Speaker 2>use all the time and do all the time.

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Gas give me a give me Ask card, give me

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 1>a Kroger gift card, or Kroger cards.

0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:36.840
<v Speaker 5>Are the greatest salesperson here was giving me a gift

0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:40.640
<v Speaker 5>card because I drove to meet them, and I go

0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:42.520
<v Speaker 5>to use it and only had seventeen dollars.

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:47.200
<v Speaker 4>It was already wallet.

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 5>Oh thanks so much for driving all the way for that.

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:51.960
<v Speaker 5>Here's a gift card.

0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:53.800
<v Speaker 1>And you used to do this back in the day.

0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:54.800
<v Speaker 1>We did this with Fletch.

0:04:55.000 --> 0:04:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Fletch would always say, bring your gift cards and I'll

0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 2>use your gift cards. And so we would give them

0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:02.680
<v Speaker 2>all the gift cards, and Spike would give him empty

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:03.960
<v Speaker 2>gift cards.

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 3>He would just go to like a you.

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Know, just grab.

0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:12.480
<v Speaker 2>So it was basically gift card roulette. Fletch didn't know

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 2>if it was going to be a good one or

0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.360
<v Speaker 2>a bad one. I do have to say this though,

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 2>that when you do use a gift card it's almost

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.560
<v Speaker 2>like going back to us talking Vegas and Roulette and stuff.

0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like hitting. I mean, like when you get it,

0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:30.839
<v Speaker 1>you're like box and I'll.

0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:32.720
<v Speaker 4>Wait like program in particular, I'll wait till I get

0:05:32.800 --> 0:05:35.040
<v Speaker 4>to the registered to scratch my pin number off. Yeah,

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.680
<v Speaker 4>I want them to see this a fresh boy.

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:40.560
<v Speaker 3>And last night, do you know, I asked our waitress,

0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:42.560
<v Speaker 3>I said, can I tip using the gift card or

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:44.920
<v Speaker 3>can you just charge me for like a sprite or something?

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 3>And she said, no, you could tip using the gift cards.

0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:50.320
<v Speaker 3>They were a great tip because someplaces card.

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:53.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, some places have you know, never pulled. Let you

0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 2>do that. Shout out to Red Robin, What's what's up, Rob?

0:05:58.480 --> 0:05:59.280
<v Speaker 1>What's going on?

0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:00.520
<v Speaker 5>Just out?

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.679
<v Speaker 1>Certain gift cards true expire in Michigan.

0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:06.120
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, do you know that there's a law. There's

0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:08.040
<v Speaker 2>a law in the state of Michigan where a gift

0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:09.160
<v Speaker 2>card cannot expire.

0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:12.280
<v Speaker 1>Business, Well, then that's expiration.

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 3>Actually really it's actually illegal.

0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:19.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you should check with that because I think that

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:22.320
<v Speaker 2>they did that a few years back. Unless they change

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 2>the law back to it being expired, no business can

0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 2>ever not you.

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Know, except that.

0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:33.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and it wouldn't let me.

0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 2>Interesting. I wonder if somebody used it ahead of you.

0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.760
<v Speaker 2>That's that's interesting. I wonder if myers get special treatment

0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.800
<v Speaker 2>or something. But the Google say it can though really

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:44.120
<v Speaker 2>in Michigan says yes.

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:47.640
<v Speaker 4>Under Michigan law and federal regulations, retail gift cards get expired,

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 4>but not for at least five years from the date

0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:50.200
<v Speaker 4>of purchase.

0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so it can. So it's a five year thing.

0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 2>I thought, Yeah, that's what I thought, is the retail

0:06:55.839 --> 0:07:00.159
